“Paige did a fantastic job taking care of our boys! We were gone for a few days, and she did the basics plus a lot more! Took our trash can out, watered the plants and let the boys out back for some recreation. I loved the fact that Paige is right around the corner. Will definitely use her again and she comes highly recommended!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I can make sure your furry baby is loved and well taken care of no matter what size, age, and energy level! I also have experience with puppy training & sitting. We go for walks every morning and evening and welcome any addition to the pack to make sure everyone gets enough exercise & stimulation for the day! I work from home with flexible hours so am able to get your fur babies out whenever needed. I live in a house with a fenced yard so there is plenty of space for your pets to run around and play. We also have a very friendly, 4 year old, golden retriever to keep your pups company during their stay!

About: Every since I was a child, we've always had dogs. I grew up with a terrier/poodle mix named Skamps, a beagle named Roscoe, and a Chihuahua named Chico. They were always part of the family. We fed them appropriately, exercised them, and loved them like siblings. I have watched other dogs for a few different people when my husband was stationed in Germany. We watched everything from a lazy puppy English Bulldog to an older (she was 8) spunky Spaniel mix. All pets were cared for exactly to the owners request and We even took pictures to send to each family! My dog typically go on 3-4 walks per day, depending on the situation and weather. I do live on a 3rd floor apartment, but we have a bark park, so they get plenty of time off leash as well. I ensure everyone eats at their scheduled times and each pet eats separately so there’s no food aggression. I have toys and beds around the apartment so they each have a comfy place to land. I’m currently a full time Army Civilian, so I don’t have much availability during the week days, but I’m available almost every weekend and evening. I also have access to post, so I can offer services there as well! Although I currently can’t watch pets in my home due to my current lease refusing visiting pets, I’m more than willing to follow all instructions and send updates in your home, whether that’s just a simple drop-in, a few walks, or even staying overnight on weekends. I can stay throughout the week, but with limited bathroom breaks due to my work schedule.

About: I have my own fur babies and have taken care of my family and friends as well. So taking care of yours and providing the best possible experience for your fur baby is a top priority of mine. I guarantee your fur baby will have an amazing experience! I am able to do any nights for boarding. As I may be out and about during the weekends I do come back every 2 to 4 hours for potty breaks and meals. During the week my husband works from home Tuesdays and Thursdays so there’s always someone home. Your fur babies will have a PAWstive experience in my care! I currently have a full-time job but my husband works from home, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and is more than happy to help me out when needed. I am free to board any night during the week and unless my calendar says otherwise any weekend as well. The house is kept clean at all times. I do allow pets on beds and other furniture. (Unless stated otherwise) My doggies have food available to them through out the day, potty breaks are on a 3-4 hour range.


About: I love dogs! We lost our family dog that we had for 16 years. I’ve also owned Chihuahuas. I promise to spoil them, walk them, I even do car rides. I treat other dogs as if they were my own. Little dogs are my favorite as I enjoy treating them like the little babies they are. But I love all dogs. They will not go without anything while in my care. If you have a certain request or routine, don’t be afraid to ask. Your fur baby will not want for anything in your absence. We just lost our sweet chihuahua and would be blessed to love on your fur baby in your absence. We love lake life, parks, etc. We take the fur babies with us because we know they like these things too. I don’t work outside of the home so I am always available for your pets while they are staying with me in my care. I am able to give frequent potty breaks if needed and walks as well. I have a fenced in yard and would never take them outside for walks etc without a leash. They are allowed on our furniture and able to interact with us like they are our family. It’s only me and my husband in our home and we are a team when it comes to caring for these animals.

“Brent and Stu are forever thankful to Brian. They were happy when we arrived back home and we were happy with all Brian did for them. First class and hopefully Brian will agree to assist us in the future.”

Larissa H.
“The behavior of Larissa's own dog speaks volumes about her qualifications as a caregiver. When her dog was only a year old, he was one of the most well behaved and gentle dogs I've ever seen and he continues to mature into such a great furry friend that is a pleasure to be around. Larissa did a great job training him and I'm certain she would be as responsible and loving with any other dog. She loves animals and works to try to understand what motivates their behavior in order to work with each individual animal. And it would be difficult to find a more responsible person - if Larissa says she will walk or care for your dog at a certain time, you can 100% count on her showing up and focusing on the job of taking care of your pet! I would leave my pets in her care any time!!!”

Tina & Nathaniel N.
“Tina and Nathaniel were so kind to my dog. They spoiled her rotten. Tina works from home so she was able to let my dog out when they wanted and her always being there was also a comfort since my dog has bad separation anxiety. I was regularly updated with pictures. This is my first time using Tina but it won’t be my last. My flight was delayed for 4 hours and so I couldn’t get my dog until the evening. Tina was super flexible and she even offered to keep my dog until the next day if I were delayed even more. This made a super stressful situation to be less stressful because I knew my baby would he cared for until I could get her.”
